Flaming

Well we found out 2 things. One our thermometer is WAY WAY off, and two Jason has a cold and a "flaming" ear infection.

When we took him in today I took his temp before we left and it said that he has a fever of 101. Not that big of a deal. When the nurse took it it was 103. Dang and last night he was so much hotter. I am actually going to have to invest in a good thermometer now. Dang I wonder how much that is going to run me.

The doctor also told me that Jason has had a "flaming" ear infection for the last 3 days. Dang. I had no clue. This kid is tougher then nails. He hasn't pulled at the ear at all. Heck we are such bad parents we took him to the park for the last 3 nights. He has been going stir crazy and gets so tired of laying down.

Well hopefully with this medicine that the doctor has now put him on, it will help things out a ton. I am not thrilled that I have to give it to him twice a day for 10 day though. That is a long time for me to remember to give him any thing. Oh well.

Well....now that he has an antibiotic, he should feel much better with in 24 hours. What a drastic difference in his eyes in the two picture. Poor little guy!

That's just crazy. It was good to see him tonight, looks like things are getting better.

I remember when the boys got an ear infection. It was only obvious at night when they wouldn't sleep. I am sure by now he is back to his cute self! ;)
